My experience with Ha Garfinkel

I came across Hal through a family members friend (previous client). When I was 1st told about Hal, they could not stop advising me of how good and dedicated Hal was at what he does best. I decided to give him a call and meet with him. From the moment I met Hal I knew he was the one I wanted to repre...sent me on my DUI case. He provided me with more information on the process of my case and walk me through everything step by step. A few days ago I had my statutory summary of suspension hearing and let me tell you, Hal knows his stuff. From when the hearing began to when the officer was called up for cross examination to the closing arguments. Hal had such confident attitude throughout the whole process, my statuary summary of suspension was rescinded. Words could not express how happy I was to know I would be receiving my drivers license back. I am hopeful to get the same results when we go to trial, having Hal by my side I know for certain that I will have a lawyer who will fight and give everything he's got to come out of the court room with good results. I would highly recommend Hal Garfinkel to those who are in need of a defense lawyer. Look no further Hal is your guy.

A Great Experience - A great Lawyer

A Great Experience I won’t go in to the particulars of our case, but it was serious. Neither my daughter nor myself had no idea who to contact for help, since neither one of us has ever been in trouble before. Where to begin. My daughter contacted a few of her friends that have had or knows someon...e who has had criminal legal problems in the past. Out of the four phone calls she made two of her friends said that Hal Garfinkel would definitely be the person we should contact. They recommended him highly. After meeting him I just knew that we had found the person that was going to help us out. His knowledge of criminal law is unbelievable. He is both aggressive and passionate and seems to really care about his clients. He made us both feel that he would have no problem handling our case and that is what he did. We didn’t even have to go to a preliminary hearing because he had made other arrangements for us. I would highly recommend Hal Garfinkle not only as a lawyer but as a person.

the greatest attorney around.

From the 1st time I met with Hal I knew he was the lawyer I needed if I wanted to win my case. I was being charged with aggravated unlawful use of a weapon. He made me feel that we had no problem winning this case. He is very intelligent and we'll spoken. He knows lots of people and they all seem to ...love him. He looks at your case in every aspect and puts everything he has into your case. Watching him up there do his job us like something off a movie, it's pretty amazing. I would definitely recommend Hal for any case you have. He is definitely the man who can get your life back to normal. I was looking at being a convicted felon and losing everything I worked hard for. I have a good job I'm in the Army National Guard and I want to be a police officer. Thanks to Hal I have another chance to have a great future.

Aggravated speeeding

Words can not describe Hal's professionalism, compassion and kindness. He was able to work out a plea agreement for me and got me in and out of court with a small fine and court costs. If you ever have a need for.representation put you trust and future in Hals very capable hands. He is truly the best.... I could say more , but there is no need. Hire hal and get results. Enough said.

Amazing Attorney!

Hal is an amazing Attorney I ran into a situation where I went to a concert and was accused of trespassing by security because I walked through the wrong door and was given a citation although I had tickets to the concert. I couldn't believe it I was shocked first time I ever got in trouble I felt li...ke I was being accused of a simple mistake that anyone can run into. I right away knew I was going to fight ticket. When I first met Hal he asked about my situation and I immediately saw confidence in him which is why I hired him. He assured me that he was able to get this taken care of with no hesitation he told me not to worry about it. I talked to other attorneys and some just did not have the confidence that he has. When we arrived to court Hal did all the work and I didn’t have to do anything he got the ticket DISMISSED he did what he said he would. I was highly satisfied I would definitely recommend him. Thank you Hal you’re the best!
